A fourth federal judge blocked President Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order.
US District Judge for the District of Massachusetts Leo Sorokin, and Obama appointee, blocked Trump’s order and said in a 31-page ruling that loss of birthright citizenship, even if temporary, and later restored can likely leave ‘permanent scars.’
CBS News reported:
A fourth federal judge on Thursday blocked President Trump’s executive order seeking to terminate birthright citizenship, joining the growing number of courts that have prevented the president from implementing his directive while a slew of legal challenges continue.
U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin, who sits on the federal district court in Massachusetts, said that a group of 19 states and the District of Columbia, as well as two nonprofit organizations, are likely to prevail on the merits of their claims. The challengers have argued that Mr. Trump’s executive order, issued on his first day in office, violates the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment.
